Custom icon problem.

SPo2 · 01-26-2006, 09:37 AM

Hi,

i recently created a ".icon file" & applied onto a program,

The thing is -> It all appears fine when this program is in Linux OS but once i transfer it to WIN XP, it changes to "MS batch file."

Anyone has ideas on this so that e ".icon file" will appear e same on both platform?

Thanks :}

Windows XP decides based on the extension, I think it wants ".ico" for icons. Linux decides based on other information, you can see what type by using the "file" command (type "file [filename]" and you'll see the type of the file).
